And so it has happened to another
As it happens to all who take a stand
Majestic bottoms on cushioned seats
Have shown velvet fists and iron hand
Amidst the Supreme Imponderables
To find some reasons you may roam
But all you will find are regurgitations
And self-praise of a crumbling epitome
Those who think a lot are saddened
Others can scarcely conceal elations
While we value individual liberties
They are citing the “comity of nations”
